Last night’s Top Gear gets show’s lowest EVER ratings

The 23rd season of Top Gear hit an all time low last night (19.06.16), causing viewers to question just how much further the BBC will prolong our pain before putting new presenters Chris Evans and Matt LeBlanc out of their misery.

According to the overnight figures, the fourth episode in the motoring show’s current run drew an audience of just 2.34 million viewers; the lowest audience for any episode of Top Gear since 2002. What was that you were bragging about on Twitter a few weeks ago, Evans?

The new Top Gear is a hit. OFFICIALLY. 23 % audience share. 12% MORE than the opening episode of the last series. These are the FACTS.
